I understand the criticism totally fair point, I did do a fair bit of research but the bikes going to see a lot of use so I didnt want to spend money on crap that'd get changed anyway and I'd had my eyes on bob jackson frames since i started my research...
I did realise i needed an english bottom bracket and i understand i need cranks to match it was more the 'mm' length that i was asking about as i don't fully understand the differance, risers are purely for me to get used to riding fixed being upright should help me learn and then i can use drops when im more confident
im definitely going for a classic look i have no plans on putting bright orange wheels and a pink set of handlebars on it, i have the money to spend on some decent parts for it im not now going 'ok so i have a frame £100 for the rest what can i get'
